Trip to the Pearl

We decided to go check out The Pearl during the day (as we have only seen it at night time)

Firstly we had a drive by the Zig Zag Towers - they really are quite amazing structures, at certain angles they look like they just might fall over.  






Driving over the bridge to The Pearl


The entrance - its like you are driving into another world (which is clean) its like an escape from the city life of Doha

Tuk Tuk's to take you from your car to the shops if you desire  - the walk is not that far. But you wouldn't want to walk in the summer.

Inside one of the shopping areas - there is only one shop open at the moment.  But all the windows are labelled with the names of shops that are going in there - and I would say that these shops would be window shopping only!!!


Some of the apartments available

More apartments and I can't wait to see the sorts of boats that will live here.

More shops and apartments
